What are the postoperative rehabilitation measures for patients with scoliosis?
The main purpose of surgery is to correct scoliosis, and patients can exercise their limbs after surgery, which is conducive to shortening the rehabilitation process and reducing the occurrence of postoperative complications. On 1 day after operation, the patient should carry out straight leg lifting exercise under the condition of pain tolerance, that is, keep the upper body straight, slowly lift one lower limb, then slowly put it down and lift both lower limbs in turn; Exercise your feet. Bend your feet forward as far as possible while keeping your legs still. After reaching a certain limit, extend your feet backward, once 10~ 15, three times a day. On the second day after operation, the patient received lung function training, such as blowing balloons or bubbles, to promote the recovery of lung function, improve respiratory movement and prevent pulmonary complications. On the third day after operation, the patient should move his limbs in bed. Neck movements include flexion and extension, lateral flexion and lateral rotation, and shrug. Active and passive movements of both upper limbs, mainly shoulder joint, lifting, abduction and external rotation; The movements of both lower limbs mainly include straight leg elevation and abduction, knee and ankle flexion. With the help of these exercises, we can promote blood circulation, strengthen the muscle strength of limbs and prepare patients for getting out of bed. In order to prevent the internal fixation from shifting or breaking, the patient should maintain a correct sitting posture, do not lean forward the upper body, and do not lift heavy objects on the upper limbs; Within half a year after operation, it is necessary to reduce physical load, minimize spinal activity and prevent trauma; In addition to taking a shower and sleeping, braces should be installed for more than 3 months, and the removal time should be decided according to the review results.
